520    Rio de Janeiro is a city of extremes: from Carnaval's 
       hedonistic delights, to the poverty of the favelas, to the
       softly seductive samba beat. But there's a dark side to 
       this beautiful city: for years, Rio was ravaged by 
       inflation, drug wars, and crooked leaders, and the legacy 
       of decades of corruption can be seen in the very real 
       struggles the city faces today. Now, Rio is ready to 
       remake itself, this time into a global, modern capital 
       ready for its turn on the world stage with the Olympics in
       2016. But at what price? Armed with sharp prose and a 
       reporter's instinct, Rio-born journalist Juliana Barbassa 
       brings a firsthand glimpse of what's really happening in 
       Rio (the good, the bad, and the maddening). She paints a 
       fascinating picture of this city "on the brink," 
       explaining how Rio will succeed (or fail) based on the 
       choices its leaders and citizens make today. But through 
       it all, she never loses sight of the human face of Rio.--
